Historical information
On the 27th of May, 1994, the foundation plaque of the Arthritis Foundation of Victoria's new headquarters was unveiled. Named the Percy Baxter Arthritis Centre, the official unveilling was conducted by the Premier of Victoria, the Honourable Jeff Kennett (1948-). Located at 263-265 Kooyong Rd, Elsternwick, the construction of the new building was nearing completion. In this photo, AFV CEO, Shirley Caulfied, and Foundation founder and President, Dr Leslie Koadlow, show the Premier and others around the site.
